The beautiful columns of this 300-year-old cathedral will enthral you and the light coming through the stunning large stain glass windows is a sight to behold. I came across a paper clipping {pictured} that got me excited about visiting this spectacular church and going through all the ancient history and treasures.
What I loved most about this little walk through memories is the walk up to the watchtower. St. Thomas Cathedral Church has an interesting watchtower that you can climb via a spiral staircase and witness the most spectacular view of the city. As I climbed up the stairs, I felt like an excited kid and the sight was absolutely breathtaking, it seemed like I was looking at a completely different side of Mumbai
Other than the gorgeous watchtower, the stain glass windows are the highlight of this church. Love learning about ancient times? This place has a history that goes back to 300 years, beautifully stored in the portions, plaques, and paintings that will take you to that era.
The fun part is that Reverend Avinash Rangayya, the Presbyter in charge of the Cathedral took some enthusiasts around the church and its compound on April 21, 2018, and they plan to have another such walk organised soon in the month of May or June.
